Subject(s): Online resources: Dissertation note: Diss. (summary) Stockholm : Stockholms universitet, 2021. This dissertation asks to what extent, how and why non-climate IOs engage with climate change adaptation. To answer this research question, the dissertation develops an overarching theoretical framework. The main argument is that IOs’ behavior and willingness to engage with climate adaptation is a function of internal (IO design and bureaucratic politics) and external factors (IO connectivity, resource dependency, fragmentation, problem complexity). Throughout five independent research articles in this dissertation, I utilize this framework to develop new hypotheses in the context of adaptation. Drawing on case studies and quantitative overtime data of 30 IOs, this thesis demonstrates that all non-climate IOs in the sample display engagement with climate adaptation in various forms ranging from publishing global guidelines to implementing local- level projects.
